Currently have some code using this:
https://code.google.com/p/gwt-google-apis/
Since it hasn't been updated in years, and google code is going away...
I was wondering what the current approach/libraries are for accessing google apis from within GWT.
I think a good alternative would be to use the google map web component with JSInterop.

I am developing a Polymer app at http://alpha.drjoke.com
I tried submitting to Google Index using the Webmaster Tools.
It appears that Google can render my app correctly.
However, it seems that Google is not picking up any textual data. It is not indexing any words from my app. It even complains that it cannot detect structured data and that I should start adding HTML.
Am I understanding things correctly? What can I do to have Google correctly index my Polymer app.
It took a few days, but it now seems that Google can see the textual content on my Polymer site.
Is it possible to embed Highcharts scripts in Google sites?
I've tried inserting an HTML box and also throwing everything in an HTML file and calling it via a Google Apps script. So far, both methods just give me all the text from the graph (title, axis labels, etc.), but no graph. I know embedding JS in a Google site is kind of tricky, but can this be done?
No. SVG (which Highcharts uses) is not supported within Caja (which an HTML Box and Apps Script use to sanitize and ensure safe code).
Yes, as of Jan 2016 (at least), I can easily use a highcharts library in GAS.
A dynamically updating graph using highcharts library within GAS environment can be found here: GAS-highcharts
A Working example is here: working-highcharts-GAS
It is based on this JSFiddle: jsfiddle (dot) net/gh/get/jquery/1.9.1/highslide-software/highcharts.com/tree/master/samples/stock/demo/dynamic-update/
Is there an example anywhere of how to use the Document apps-script API to add a button to the Google Docs menu, when it is clicked bring up a web page from my web app that prompts the user for 2 strings, then on OK it does a search & replace on the open document?
I don't need to add search/replace per-se. I just figure this is the simplest example of writing an Add-In to Google Docs that edits the open document.
thanks - dave
As it stands, this is not possible. I think this issue (which you might like to star so that you can receive updates in the thread) best describes it. Summary in post #7:
This feature request is to add the same script functionality to a
document as there is in a spreadsheet. ie menu items etc.
A recent video by google (see their blogs) hints that this will be soon available.
In the meantime u can ask for the document url from your published script interface.
If you make a googledrive.com client app you can even use the new goglepicker to select the doc.
I am trying to create flashcards by using google spreadsheet.
I tried the way suggested at this page
It produces a panel containing the flashcards but actually it is empty.
I am using the last version of google chrome to produce it.
To me, the flashcards gadget, embedded into google dive, seems too old to work with the current version of google chrome.
My questions are:
Could it be possible?
What could be an alternative way to make flashcards related to your gmail account?
According Google Drive Support the Gadgets in Google Spreadsheets will be deprecated.

A good alternative could be http://api.flashcardstogo.com/webapp/
Since gadgets have now been deprecated the makeuseof method no longer works.
Fortunately http://flippity.net/ provides similar functionality using publicly shared (obfuscated) links.
Tip: Create a study topic bookmark folder in your bookmarks containing links to both your google spreadsheet and the flippity generated flashcard. That way you can open both with, right-click + "open all bookmarks". It makes it easier to study and add new cards.
I was just surfing out the site Khanacademy.org, and just seeing their practice session, when i came across this page, Here I saw something odd, they use google maps to create the structure shown below:
Now I am wondering that how can they make use of Google Maps to create a course structure tree like this?
PS - If you can't see the link to this page directly, then I think you need to register.
Here's how they did it
IMO it's an Googlemaps overlay.
